    Lol, there's always at least one BJS Fanboy that watched a different fight to everyone else including the judges who gave SPLIT decision.

    When I first watched it I gave it to Eubank, after a couple of times I was able to score it for BJS but only just. Eubank was alseep in the first half of the fight compared to his normal output and Saunders did a good job of neutralising him and outboxing him. Second half of the fight of the fight was all Eubank with around 10 seconds of each round with any activity from BJS.

    The more I read BJS Fanboy comments on here the more I think it's one of his Gypsy family or even himself trying to boost his ego.

    You can't take the win way from him but to call it a humiliation says a lot about the person making the comments and their apparent lack of boxing knowledge.
    I can't stand Saunders but he clearly won the fight. Eubank looked like he had no idea in the early rounds, and hes late surge was mostly inaccurate, and wouldn't have looked half as good if Saunders stamina didnt suck so bad. It wasn't a humiliation in the ring but based on Snrs ludicrous comments going in it looked pretty silly on the night. He was supposed to be a mix of Ray Leonard, Roy Jones and Mike Tyson I seem to remember.

      eubank gets way too much credit for blasting out c level fighters. He'll get outboxed and exposed against groves.

        This fight sold fast but eubank still trying to sell fight? No need to now!
        Sometimes I wonder if groves is as good as some of the guys eubank snr fought. Probably not. So I see no reason why eubank jnr can't win. When snr says jnr is better than he was

          This is a great fight for both... Groves either gets to expose Eubank and launch himself towards another big domestic scrap with Smith in the final then Degale rematch / unification mega fight or Eubank will finally launch himself into elite class and the same - massive fights with Smith then Degale unification.

          I think it’ll turn into a shootout... Groves can’t resist throwing if he finds a home for his right, and Eubank only moves forward and throws. If his chin is as good as they say I think Groves fades mid rounds, if it isn’t then I think Groves drops him early.

            Groves has power of course but so does Eubank. When was the last time Groves concussively knocked out a big super middle like Yildrim?

            He seems to dining out on a flash knockdown on iron chinned Froch.
            I just hope it's a good fight .......Tickets sold out rapid ha

            F**k me that has got to be a con

              Not sold on Eubank at all. He's an accident waiting to happen imo. Think I'd pick Groves at this point.

                That's what GGG's whole resume consists of. (Some, like Wade, aren't even at the C level.)

                I like Groves, but Jr will light him up good. Groves is worn out and ready for the taking.

                  i think beating spike o sullivan, shot to **** arthur abraham and some random turk and losing to saunders is a bit different to a cv consisting of jacobs, brook, lemiuex, canelo (in most people eyes). Hell, even beating martin murray and geale is way more than eubanks done.

                    H hasn't beaten the ONLY two fighters that were above average in Jacobs and Canelo. Many believe he lost both fights.

                      It will rule if Groves lays a huge wallop on Eubank. Hopefully that would shut him and his annoying ass dad up for a while.
